Hearing those words, Ji Qiongxin’s felt touched. In the Xie family, it was indeed uncommon to possess such a pure heart.
She reached out her hand and gently patted Yun Bixue’s hands. “Such a good child. Don’t burden yourself. You have already married Limo and are part of family now. There is no need to be so ceremonious between us. Treat me like your mother. There aren’t that many rules between our family members.”
Yun Bixue listened and her eyes teared up. “Thank you Aunty.”
“We are family, no need to say thanks. Sigh, Limo, this child is not apt in expressing herself. Be more patient.
“However, he truly cares for you. He had talked about your background to me before. You, too, did not have your parents by your side while you grew up and had suffered greatly.
“In the future, I will be your mother. If you have suffered any indignation, just let me know. If Limo bullies you, I will teach him a lesson on your behalf.”
Ji Qiongxin tried her best to make her tone sound mellow. It was an exceptional chance to have met a child like Yun Bixue.
How one treated his parents actually depended on his sincerity.
Yun Bixue smiled sweetly and replied Ji Qiongxin, “Aunty, he treats me very well. He would never mistreat me.” In her heart, Xie Limo was the best.
Ji Qiongxin glanced at her son and giggled, “You heard that? Your wife praised you.”
Xie Limo nodded. “Mother, I know.”
He understood what his mother had implied through her words—she wanted him to cherish his wife, for it was rare for such a woman to come by.
The family chatted and ate. They were having a ball of a time.
After the meal, Xie Limo went to do the dishes. Yun Bixue and Ji Qiongxin watched the television together, and the former updated the latter on the current affairs of Ning An City based on the contents of the news.
Ji Qiongxin watched the news on the Shen and Jia family. After listening to Yun Bixue’s explanation, a hint of coldness and disdain flashed across her slanted eyes. “They are merely a small and crippled family, yet they still want to create such a big fuss. They really overestimate their capabilities. Don’t worry, with Limo around, he will definitely restore everything.”
Yun Bixue was at a loss of how to answer her. The Shen family also had a century-long heritage, but in her mother-in-law’s eyes, they were simply not worthy.
One could tell after some thought that the Xie Limo was a truly formidable household. However, she did not probe nor felt curious. She only reiterated firmly to herself that she must get stronger. Only that way could she be worthy of standing beside Limo.
“This is Duan Qiushu.”
After speaking, the television aired all the progress and achievements of the video game company. When Duan Qiushu was interviewed, he mentioned that he had been blessed by a benefactor and could hence enjoy the glory of today.
Ji Qiongxin watched and commented, “This child knows that he should be grateful. I can tell that he is a righteous person from one look. Great, he is promising.”
Yun Bixue felt delighted too. This video game company was one that she had invested in. It had expanded too rapidly beyond her expectations. She had indeed judged him well; Duan Qiushu had such capabilities in him.
After watching the news, Xie Limo was done washing the dishes. He announced that he had already prepared the room for Ji Qiongxin.
Ji Qiongxin said to Yun Bixue, “Bixue, quickly go take a bath. After that, come to my room. I have brought something nice for you. Only you are allowed to come!”
Ji Qiongxin sounded mysterious, and it made Yun Bixue feel rather doubtful. However, she still took a quick shower obediently.
Xie Limo shook his head and chuckled resignedly. He had no idea what his mother was getting at. He entered the study room. There was still a lot of work to be completed.
After Yun Bixue took her shower, she wore her pyjamas and entered Ji Qiongxin’s room. When she noticed Ji Qiongxin holding dearly onto several pieces of transparent lingerie, she was shocked.
“Bixue, quick, quickly come over. This is what I have prepared for you. Put this on today.”
